Doing a slideup/down effect isn't really hard to program. You could
set your own events and flags inside the functions themselves to do
what you want to accomplish. I needed a slide-right, slide-left, so I
wrote a little function myself. You may want this as a starting point
to build your own. It's not very elegant but it works.
function showAdvanced(p) {
Element.show('advancedPanel')
$('advancedPanel').style.left=p+"px"
if(p>199) {
return;
}
else {
p = p + 20
x=setTimeout("showAdvanced("+p+")",10)
}
}
